As a photographer who specializes in newborn and family photography in Central New York, I am happy to help guide you through the process so that you can enjoy creating beautiful family photos.

Get in Touch Ahead of Time

Once you have shared the news with those closest to you, it’s a great idea to reach out and secure a spot for your Rochester, NY newborn photos as soon as possible. In order to give each family the utmost care and attention, Jessica only books a limited number of sessions per month. Though 40 weeks may seem like a long time, getting the booking taking care of early means you won’t have the added stress of finding a photographer toward the end of pregnancy or once baby has arrived.

What to Wear for Your Newborn Photos

I want you to feel comfortable and like yourself! Whether that means wearing a cozy sweater, long dress, or something completely different, confidence will help you to feel at ease in front of the camera. Families are always welcome to borrow from the client closet of dresses, sets, and baby clothes in a wide variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. My goal is to help make the process smooth and enjoyable for you in every way.

The Best Time to Schedule Your Newborn Session

When should you schedule your newborn session in Rochester, NY? The ideal time is within two weeks of baby’s birth when he or she is still nice and small and sleepy. Once baby has arrived, we will select a date on the calendar that works with the lighting in your home as well as baby’s schedule. On the day of the session, we’ll follow baby’s lead and take our time. I am happy to wait while baby is fed, changed, or soothed; I want you to be free of stress and enjoy the experience so you can look at your photos and think of them fondly.
